Here today, gone tomorrow :o) Already won first time I tried, yea!

Thanks for the heads up! I only started playing the train game the last time it was free and got hooked big time! I didn't try any of the other games. Here's a question for you train players. What is your best strategy for winning?

I'm still playing also. If you have Windows, you can open a window dedicated exclusively to the Train Game. As long as McAfee does not cause me to re-boot or, I close the window by mistake, I can play it as much as I want. I agree that it can cause some problems with getting stuff done around the house, but it's my favorite game of all time. sooey

I've never heard of the game, but I took trains all over Mexico in the 1970s and early 1980s. When AMTRAK took over passenger trains in the U.S., Mexico bought a lot of the old passenger trains that were built in the U.S. in the 1940s with stainless steel interiors that were very nice and comfortable - much better than what AMTRAK replaced them with. If I got an overnight train from Mexico City to Oaxaca, I would get a dormitorio (sleeper) that had its own bathroom, and it was about the same price as an inexpensive hotel room. I preferred traveling during the day, however, as I enjoyed the scenery and the lively events that took place on the Mexican trains. In Second Class, you could buy food from the windows from people who would come up to the train every time it stopped, but in first class, the windows would not open, and so second class was more fun, although it could get more crowded. On the train from Guadalajara to Tepic, we went through a major tequila producing area, and people came on the train selling quarts of tequila for 60¢, and everyone got pretty drunk. Then minstrels came on and serenaded everyone and collected tips. Is this what the game is like?
